Our Climate in Chaos - an illustrated talk by Dr Tom Rippeth

On Thursday 5th November 2009, Dr Tom Rippeth will be giving an illustrated talk at Yale College Grove Park at 1.30pm.

The talk will include insight about the climate change we are seeing, and particularly some of Tom's work in the High Arctic. His visit to Yale coincides with a road trip of a number of meetings ahead of the December's UN Summit on Climate Change, to help people understand the problems we face with climate change, and the likely action which the UN Summit will call.

He has published 50 papers in top international science journals and been invited to speak at many top Oceanography and Climate conferences in the UK and the USA.
